Today was the day for a hill walk, before the weather started to get a bit dubious. The target was Ben Lawers, with the possibility of Beinn Ghlas on the way past.

Drove to the car park and found a good spot. Fortunately had just enough change to pay. Then warmed the soup for the flask, and put together some sandwiches.

Once we started, it became apparent that I really should have had on shorts and a t-shirt. It was very warm and still, so the sweat soon arrived in buckets.

Izzie started to struggle with the exertion, so we called it a day before reaching the summit. It will be there for another day. So it was soup, sandwiches and a slightly less strenuous return to the van.
